Christmas special from 2011. The Brockmans plan to escape the festivities by spending Christmas in the sun - but fate intervenes. Grandad has been taken ill and is languishing in the hospital from hell, Karen has toothache, so her festive treat is a visit to the emergency dentist, and Ben attempts to beat a world record involving knives. Meanwhile, family friend Jane and her ex-convict boyfriend take up residence in the family's home

The Brockmans do their bit for the community by throwing a party for their friends and neighbours - but things do not go as planned. Jake seems to have fallen in with a bad crowd, Karen would rather be chatting online and Pete's mum has turned up unexpectedly.

Sanjeev Bhaskar and Mark Heap guest star in this festive special of the domestic comedy from 2012, with Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner

It's up to Pete and Sue to put things right - but if they cannot do it, then it seems the kids will just have to sort things out instead. Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner star, with Tyger Drew-Honey, Daniel Roche and Ramona Marquez

Christmas is just round the corner but Mrs Brown has a problem. No one knows what her grandson Bono wants for a present this year - and he's already posted his letter to Santa. Presumably there's a good reason why they can't simply ask him. Meanwhile, the foul-mouthed matriarch struggles to control her temper at the family's games night when none of the guests will play by her rules, but at least there shouldn't be any problems with the Christmas tree this year as she's having a special one delivered
